For the 3rd Disquiet Junto weekend challenge. More information about this piece here: <a href="http://dancerobotdance.com/2012/01/glass-half-empty-glass-half-full/">Dance Robot Dance</a>
Two glasses, different sizes, filled with different amounts of water. First glass is "played," mic into mixer, FX send to EHX Stereo Memory Man, looping about six seconds. The second glass is then "played" overdubbing a few seconds of that same loop. So you hear different notes. This is then fed to the Tyme Sefari on the modular, with sample rate modulated by the Pressure Points sequencer, creating the slightly random "melody." The Tyme Sefari is fed into the Pittsburgh Analog Delay, then through the Strymon Blue Sky reverb and recorded in Wave Editor. While this is running, the FX send is connected to the OP-1 and six seconds of the glass is sampled into it's synth sampler engine. This is sequenced with the Pattern Sequencer and crossfaded into the mix, as the Tyme Sefari is slowly removed. Notes are added and then removed from the pattern sequencer, and the end.
All samples and sounds are recorded/sampled/created during the recording. Nothing pre-set, no post-production. It could have been shorter, maybe, but that's not how it worked out.
First time I've recorded something "live" like this and it was more exciting than I expected. Getting the file in just under the deadline.
